Hello all!. I have purchased the toon crocodile, from 3D Universe. however found that it doesn't have any animation, only 6 different poses. Can anyone lead me to where I can learn how to Animate this avatar? All the puppet options are disabled in iClone6 for this object. If I try to apply other character motions, it says "Cannot replace motion. Invalid file or Avatar not compatible".
Thank you in advance for any ideas on how to solve this.

This particular model has a profile structure built in DAZ, and it will animate inside iClone.  The Profile needs to be built and then exported from DAZ as an FBX character.  
The facial DUF options and bone structure are then converted inside 3dXchange as a Non-Standard Character.  
The puppet tool does work for this model once converted for use inside iClone.  

Reallusion provides the preset profile for those purchasing directly from them, but users can create their own in DAZ, as mentioned above.

Thank you, Cricky for your reply. I bought this Croc from Daz marketplace, and also from Reallusion marketplace.  For the DAZ one, I did as you said, and exported as FBX, and a non-standard character. But got unusable in iClone, as part of the body was missing.
So I bought it from Reallusion again (cheaper) , and I noticed it doesn't have any animation, only 6 different "poses". So still I don;t know how to Animate this avatar!!!
Thanks anyway!

By the way, great Tooned Up car! ;)

Which Croc ?  I assume it is the one on the left.  

I also have the profile for this one, but not a completed one, just enough to make it talk and walk.  You would still need to export from DAZ, but the editing is easier than you think. 

In relation to the one on the right, this is the profile that does come with the Reallusion model.   I can give you that profile. Just send me a P.M. (Private Message) so I know where you can get the file.
